Sausage Biscuit Breakfast Sandwiches

These Sausage Biscuit Breakfast Sandwiches are a twist on a holiday favorite from my husband’s side of the family.  A delicious homemade biscuit with bite-sized pieces of sausage in the biscuit, turned into a breakfast sandwich with eggs and bacon.

Sausage Biscuit Breakfast Sandwiches

I love family gatherings around breakfast.  Whether it’s Christmas morning breakfast or a brunch get-together during the busy holiday season, breakfast food brings people together.  My mother-in-law makes a sausage biscuit for Christmas morning, so I put my own spin on that holiday classic when I created these sandwiches.  These breakfast sandwiches use two of my favorite breakfast items: Farmer John® Classic Pork Sausage Links and Farmer John® Classic Premium Bacon.  They are great for a gathering but also great on the go!  I pick them up at my local Ralphs!

Ingredients and Directions for Sausage Biscuit Breakfast Sandwiches:

Sausage Biscuits

• Farmer John Classic Pork Sausage Links, 4 cooked and cut into bite-sized pieces
• 2 cups of flour
• 1 tablespoon baking powder
• 1/4 teaspoon salt
• 1/2 cup butter, cold and cut into cubes
• 1 cup of milk

Place flour, baking powder and salt into a food processor.  Pulse 5-7 times.  Add the cold, cubed butter to the flour mixture and pulse 5-7 times or until your butter is in pea-sized pieces.  Add your milk and pulse until it comes together.  Add the bite-sized pieces of the Farmer John Classic Pork Sausage Links and fold together until evenly dispersed.  (If you don’t have a food processor you can do this in a bowl and use a fork or a pastry cutter to incorporate your butter).

 

Bacon

• Farmer John Classic Premium Bacon, cooked and cut in half

I love to bake my Farmer John bacon in the oven.  I bake it at 400 degrees Fahrenheit on a baking rack, set on top of a cookie sheet.  If using Farmer John’s Thick Cut bacon, it takes anywhere from 20-40 minutes to cook, depending on your oven.

Eggs

• 6 large eggs
• 1/2 cup of milk
• salt and pepper to taste

Whisk together your eggs, milk, salt, and pepper.  Bake at 375 degrees Fahrenheit in a well-greased pan for 25 minutes until the edges are bubbly and there’s a little browning.  (I use a small, rectangular casserole pan where the egg mixture comes up about 1 inch on the side) Let the egg cool at least 5 minutes before cutting.  Cut into 6 pieces.

Then it’s time to assemble your Sausage Biscuit Breakfast Sandwiches.  Slice your biscuit in half.  Add a square of your baked egg and one strip of bacon (cut into 2 pieces).

I picked up my Farmer John Classic Pork Sausage Links and Farmer John Classic Premium Bacon at my local Ralphs.  You can find more great recipes at Farmer John’s website.
